A thousand words won't bring you back;
I know because I've tried.
Neither will a thousand tears;
I know because I've cried.
- Kily Dunbar


It so happened that she, who found her daily life rather chaotic,

Entered a more solid world when she opened her piano.

She was then no longer either respectful or patronizing

No longer either a rebel or a slave.

The kingdom of music is not the kingdom of the world

It will accept those whom breeding and intellect and culture have alike rejected.

The commonplace person begins to play and shoots into empyrean without effort once again.

I love music so I feel this is a true poem about "The Kingdom of Music."
